Trivia: There were no stunt doubles used for the final fight between Chuck Norris and David Carradine. The two actors demanded they did the scene themselves, in spite of strong protests from the producers.

Chosen answer:Part of it could be because more people in the crowd know McQuade or Jackson personally. We know McQuade's daughter and ex-wife are there. However, Kayo is also given the Texas Award of Valor, same as McQuade and Jackson.
